Water is still used as a booster in jet engines the Harrier jump
jet can only hover until it's water supply runs out, the WW11
Thunderbolt gained 300hp with water injection.
The kits you remember had a small pump they pumped water through
a tube that ran through or round the exhaust pipe this turned the
water to steam and it was fed to the carb via the air filter.
I don't know how big the gains were but on the Thunderbolt they
fed it about a gallon a minute for a 300 hp gain, but this was
on I think without looking it up about a 30 odd litre engine giving
just less than 2000 hp.
